They made my name on the bar front door
I once yearned
Afraid to seek more
Close my eyes on this violet night
I'm still here
Dead in your life
Don't blow smoke
The wall don't have hands
What you've got to show
And who are your friends
Your friends, your friends
For black paint says nobody cares
That I once yearned
Yeah, I'm falling away
That I'm a slave human being
And so my demons are dead
Excuses to stay, and my demons, my friends
So fight me, fight me
Said an angel
Time doesn't slow
The wall don't have hands
What you've got to show
And who are your friends
Your friends, your friends
